I was 10 years old at the time. We lived on on Littleton Avenue between South Orange Avenue and 13th Ave. My brother and I had our bedroom in the front of the house. I remember while the shooting was going on going outsid , my mother made us get out of bed and either hid under our beds or crawl out of our room.

The next day we went outside and saw a bullet hole on our porch from the shooting, and saw people running down our block with stuff they had taken from the looted stores on South Orange Ave.

As a matter of fact, me, my brother, and some more kids went into the stores and got stuff ourselves. As we ran home, I actually remember seeing either a police officer or National Guard stopping someone who had some stuff. I didn't stay long enough to find out the outcome of that confrontation. We ran into our backyard with the stuff we had taken so that they wouldn't know where we lived.

I remember one of my parents' tenant coming with some liquor and a cash register that he had gotten from the liquor store around the corner from us. There was a children's store on the corner of South Orange Avenue and Littleton Avenue and that was the store my brother and I went into.
